2013 Chinese production by province or autonomous region
- Inovev has recently compiled vehicle production data (PC + LCV) in China for 2013 (the year 2014 is being finalized), not only by make and by model but also by plant. We were able to cross-reference the data by province (or autonomous regions) and draw up relevant analyses.
- Thus, the first observation is that in 2013 the autonomous city of Chongqing is the largest producing region of passenger cars found in China (1.86 million units), followed by Shanghai (1.85 million units) and the Hubei Province (1.6 million units).
- In Chongqing, Ford is the first manufacturer in the city with more than a third of local production (680 000 units), spread over three sites (with a total capacity of 950 000 units). At Shanghai, the VW group is the largest producer in the city, with three plants manufacture 1.08 million units (with an estimated 900 000 units production capacity). Finally, in the Hubei region it is the Nissan Xiangyang plant which produces the most vehicles (with 370 000 units), followed by the Honda plant in Wuhan (325 842 units).
- Hyundai is the manufacturer which has the largest production capacity held on one site, namely Beijing (with 1 million units), ahead of VW in Shanghai (900 000 units) and Chery in Wuhu (900 000 units but used only at 50% of its capacity).
- Finally, among joint-ventures, VW is the group that has the largest number of production sites (9 sites) ahead of GM (7 sites) and Toyota (5 sites). Among the 100% Chinese manufacturers, Geely has the largest number of sites (7 sites), ahead of Changan (6 sites) and Dongfeng (5 sites).
